an investment of around £70m would be needed to lengthen and widen Cardiff’s existing runway.
45 metres width not enough???
Why would we expect a massive increase in pax through Cardiff?
I would have thought that the best way to increase visitor numbers would be to put in a decent road link and then turn the whole thing into the biggest IKEA in the world. That'd create jobs.
With fuel prices going through the roof I've told my son he is unlikely to get a job as a pilot when he is old enough due to the way the industry is progressing. What will happen to the industry when even Ryanair pax will not foot the escalating bill for jet fuel? How would you get your £70M back?
